Host: Unisys ES7000/one, x86_64, 16 physical
processors, 64 GB RAM
xen-unstable changeset 14552 booted with dom0_mem=512M
ISSUES: boot of 32-bit SLES10 DomVTs hang. Serial
console, qemu log, and xend.log provide no indication why; the 32-bit SLES10
DomVTs boot when I back up to changeset 14201 (which I ran successfully 2 weeks
ago); the problem was introduced somewhere between changesets 14201 and 14462 (which
I ran last week). Suspect changesets 14391 and 14392.
Testing includes running xm-test and also attempting to boot
and run programs in the following domUs and domVTs (running domains #s 3
through 8 simultaneously):
1. 32-processor
64-bit SLES10 DomU with 62GB memory – ran cloops, bonnie, and kernbench
2. 32-processor
64-bit SLES10 DomVT with 62GB memory
3. 4-processor
64-bit SLES10 DomU with 16GB memory - ran kernbench
4. 4-procesor
32-bit SLES10 DomVT with 2GB memory – doesn’t boot
5. 4-processor
32-bit PAE SLES10 DomVT with 16GB memory – doesn’t boot
6. 4-processor
64-bit SLES10 DomVT with 16GB memory – ran kernbench
7. 1-processor
Windows XP DomVT with 4GB memory – ran 100% cpu intensive program
8. 1-processor
Windows 2003 Server DomVT with 4GB memory – ran 100% cpu intensive
program
Results:
Domains #4 and #5 do not boot. They hang on SUSE Linux
Enterprise Server screen before login prompt appears.
Opened bug # 940.
Rest of tests successful.
Ran xm-test (non-HVM) on dom0 with the following results:
